#18: Re: Oil temp, Water temp. Tractor noises. URGH!!!! Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon Jul 18, 2011 11:21 am ---- Ok, I took it to the garage, as it did it again after i topped up the coolant. The garage is about 2 miles away.
When I got there, he came over and i told him what happened, I said there was no leak that I could see. Funnily enough at that moment, the bungs on the bottom of the rad started p**sing out water. Its a generic valeo rad thats fitted, not the original.
So I had a word with him and he didnt think it was the head gasket because of this leak. You could see that the bungs were perrished so they must have had a smaller hole in them and when i drove it at heat they just blew. So Hes going to mend my rad, give it a full service and change the cambelt for £300.
Should be done on Wednesday so we'll see what happens.

And that wasn't a cold engine. I ran it up to temperature.
Funny, I got £150 for that engine. Some bloke in China.

If its lost all its coolant like that and you drove and steam coming from the expansion bottle and head then the HG is gone.
People often blow the HG and get a new engine / fix it but dont trace what caused the problem in the first place.
If you are loosing water then it must be going somewhere. Compression test needed I think
